Chris Rock and Will Smith‘s relationship remains tense. Neither has forgiven or forgotten the drama during the 2022 Oscars, including the slap seen worldwide. Rock attempted to turn the other cheek and move on. However, Will seemingly has done something that has reopened that wound, and Chris is calling him out on it.
The 2022 Oscars was a night to remember for all the wrong reasons. As Chris Rock fulfilled his hosting duties, a seemingly harmless joke about Jada Pinkett Smith sparked a furious reaction from her husband, Will. The audience was shocked as Will stormed the stage and delivered a slap that reverberated worldwide.
Chris Rock is still salty about the episode, but Will has largely moved on with his life, and Chris is putting the actor on blast. Once Chris Rock found out that Will Smith was once again mocking the Oscar drama in his new film, Bad Boys 4, he became irate.
Will Smith Disrepects Chris Rock Again
According to Tribune.com, Chris Rock is angry because he believes that Will Smith is intentionally mocking him again. The scene in Bad Boys 4 that has the comedienne so up features a scene between Will and his co-star Martin Lawrence. The scene shows Lawerence’s character delivering a hard slap to Will Smith, a move that is seemingly a tongue-in-cheek reference to the real-life Oscars slap.
“Chris thinks it’s a pretty cheap stunt and he’s telling people how lame he finds it. It’s a classic case of Will making light of a horrific situation. Will’s playing the victim. It was the lowest point of his career, but that’s no excuse,” states the insider.
The feud between Chris Rock and Will Smith has not gone unnoticed. Rock’s alleged offense at the reference in Bad Boys: Ride or Die has been widely reported. Despite this, Smith has remained silent on the matter. This high-profile feud is far from over, and the public eagerly awaits the next chapter. It should be interesting to see how this plays out and who will make the next move in this ongoing celebrity feud.
